Chapter 233: Awakened
Qin Canglan liked Murong Yanran. This was a truth that even a blind man could see.
Bearing the boyfriend identity of Murong Yanran, he must have become a thorn in Qin Canglan’s side.
In such an awkward situation, if Qin Canglan didn’t resort to evil means to deal with him, he would not be like a member of the Qin Family.
But when Wangcheng wearing an expression of having gotten great power walked out of the throng, he was a little surprised. “Wang Xianghua has failed, but how could Wang Cheng still dare to expose himself?”
Thinking about it carefully, one would not feel it was strange. After all, when Xiaoniu fought last time, Ding Ning had not fought at all from the beginning to the end. Thus, Wang Cheng had no idea about his terrifying power, and so it was normal that he had taken such stupid action.
The most ridiculous thing was that the friend circle of Wang Cheng seemed not big, for the coming men were all acquaintances—bald head Huang Niu and his subordinates.
It seemed that history was repeating itself. Huang Niu was still domineering, with a baseball bat in his hand, showing an air that he was merely inferior to God as if the man who once rolled away was not him.
Last time, as the captain of the security guards, Wang Cheng had his fear, did not directly expose himself, and hid behind the scenes to operate his evil ways.
This time, he had didn’t have any fear and heroically stood at the most front line, arrogantly laughing. “Good luck is not always on your side. Ding, never thought about this, right? You also have a day like today.”
“Oh, what’s wrong with today?”
Ding Ning took out a cigarette, slowly lit it up, puffed a smoke ring, and spoke calmly, without panic.
Perhaps Ding Ning’s carefree attitude made Wang Cheng feel something was wrong, and his face suddenly turned dark. “What do you think of today? Today is your doom’s day.”
“You want to kill me? Is it necessary?”
Ding Ning’s expression froze and he frowned.
He had never thought Wang Cheng wanted to kill him. If so, it was difficult for him to decide how to deal with the man who stupidly belittled him. Should he kill him? He was a good, law-abiding citizen.
Seeing that his expression changed, Wang Cheng thought he was afraid and became calm immediately, happily laughing. “Kneel down to kowtow eight times before me, call me ‘grandpa’ three times, and lick clean my leather shoes. Maybe I will consider releasing you.”
“Hi, I only promised you to make his limbs disabled and never said I would kill him. I won’t accept the task to kill him.”
Huang Niu found Wang Cheng had even stood before him and showed an expression of commanding everything as if he was the boss and completely took his spotlight position. He felt unhappy and mercilessly began to show his disagreement.
Wang Cheng’s smile froze, cursing Huang Niu was a stupid team worker in his heart because he disagreed with him at the wrong time. Then, he impatiently said, “No one asked you to kill him. I only tried to scare the little child.”
“Oh, it is good not to kill him because killing people is illegal. If so, I won’t accept the task because I don’t want to escape.”
Huang Niu took a step forward to stand before Wang Cheng and lit up a cigar in a bossy manner as if he was a tycoon in the Ninghai Bund, but his bald head was too shiny. No matter how you looked at him, he looked like a bit part.
Ding Ning nearly laughed. “Killing people is illegal. Is it legal to beat and make people disabled?”
“Serious injury crimes won’t lead to the death penalty. Spend some money, find some relations, and stay in prison for several years, and you will be released. It is much better than directly being sentenced to death. This is the bottom line of our profession. ‘Brothers’ regard me as their head, and I cannot lead them to death. We are rogues with qualities and punks with ideals, and I want to lead them to a bright future.”
As he passionately delivered his speech, Huang Niu beamed with joy and gesticulated with his hands and feet.
“Applaud. Well said, boss!”
A punk who was skilled at flattering professionally put his baseball bat under his armpit, shouting and applauding with a face of admiration.
“Pa, pa, pa!”
Over 30 punks had obviously been carefully trained. They put their baseball bats under their armpits in a uniform and neat manner, and then they began applauding. The sound of their applause was enthusiastic and sincere, and those little eyes showed their passion and admiration.
Ding Ning laughed and nearly threw up. “F*ck, Huang Niu has the potential to run the pyramid scheme business!”
Wang Cheng was so much angered. “F*ck, Huang Niu has degenerated. At the wrong moment, he is launching his brainwashing campaign!”
Immediately, he shouted, “Don’t talk sense. Let’s work!”
“Yes, I’ve become anxious while waiting. Let’s begin quickly fighting. After that, we can go home and sleep.”
Ding Ning smiled and flicked his cigarette butt at Wang Cheng.
“Ah!”
With a swoosh, the cigarette butt like a sharp arrow hit Wang Cheng’s face and made sparks in the dark. Wang Cheng mournfully screamed because of the pain, hysterically shouting, “Go, go, break his limbs!”
But these followers didn’t take his order, looking at Huang Niu with a fire in their eyes. Not until Huang Niu waved his hand in a high spirit and shouted “Go” did these followers shout in chorus and wield their baseball bats to charge.
“The earlier the fight, the earlier the end of it. It’s a waste of time.”
Calmly, Ding Ning went over to them like nothing serious was about to happen and freely moved back and forth in the throng in a relaxed manner as if he was taking a stroll.
As he passed, those punks strangely didn’t make a sound and fell on the ground one by one only with a “plop”.
When he seemingly slowly but really quickly walked to Huang Niu who seemed to have seen a ghost, he only spent less than a minute.
In the Leopaard car, Qin Canglan was astonished and opened his eyes wide, a thin stream of chill rushing to his head. “Why is Ding Ning so terrifying?”
Murong Yixiao opened his mouth so wide as if he could swallow a duck egg, sparks shining in his eyes, and he cursed after a long time, “F*ck.”
Qin Canglan was awakened by his curse. Pale-faced, he took out his mobile phone and hurriedly dialed a number, giving his order in a trembling sound, “Action canceled, withdrawn immediately.”
“Master, it’s too late. They have already rushed out.”
Over the phone came the fearful sound of Shangguan Lu.
Qin Canglan’s face turned dark and, gritting his teeth, cursed, “You are a f*cking idiot! Do you want them to die?”
“I…”
Shangguan Lu was ready to explain, but Qin Canglan had already hung up the phone. So, he just mournfully complained to the phone, “This is your plan, but how did you blame me? It’s so difficult to serve a boss.”
Huang Niu had lost his high sprit he had just now, with his face showing repentance and fear. With a “plop”, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed repetitively, saying,
“Big, big, big brother, it’s my fault. Big Brother, I shouldn’t have come to fight you with a stupid idea. But I still have a mother of 80 years old and children who are waiting to be fed, and I cannot die. Big brother, grandpa, you are a generous man. Please have mercy and let me go.”
Huang Niu was a man who had no principles. Looking at him, Ding Ning wanted to show him some mercy. “This guy is really funny.”
But he had been repetitively making trouble for him. He did all these because of money, but Ding Ning must teach him a lesson. Then, he coldly said, “You can live, but you must be punished.”
Before Huang Niu continued to beg for mercy, Ding Ning had reached out his hands at the speed of lightning. “Crack!” He broke his left arm, and Huang Niu screamed. With his eyes turning white, he passed over.
Wang Cheng’s legs were uncontrollably shaking. As he took his steps back, he played the tough guy and shouted, “Don’t, don’t come near me. If you… If you dare to hurt me, my, my cousin will not let you off.”
“Your cousin is Wang Xianghua, right? Unfortunately, this is useless. Now he cannot even protect himself. He cannot save you.”
Ding Ning raised his eyebrows and sneered, and his voice was icy cold as if he was an evil spirit from hell. “How much is the hatred between you and me? With an extremely evil wish, you even wanted to break my limbs?”
“I, I, not I, it is my cousin who asked me to break your limbs. You cannot blame me. It’s all his fault. You go find him, I beg you, and please forgive me. I will never dare to hurt you!”
Wang Cheng was scared to pee in his pants, fell, and sat on the ground crying.
Ding Ning had no sympathy for him at all and coldly said, “Your cousin gave you money to ask you to handle an affair, but when you messed it up, you began to betray him, and you are not loyal; your sister works hard to feed you, but you haven’t extended you gratitude to her, and you always make trouble for her and have never thought about her, and you have no filial piety; you did evil things and got the deserved consequence that you were expelled by the company, and I forgave you because I knew your sister was a poor woman, but you didn’t thank me, even hated me and wished to do harm to me to avenge yourself, and you are not benevolent; Huang Niu was invited by you, took your money and should help you shoot the trouble, but he could be counted as your half friend, but when they summoned their courage to fight for you, you hid behind them, and even when you begged, you only begged for your own good, and you have lost your brotherhood code. What’s the meaning of your living in the world when you are not loyal, have no filial piety, are not benevolent, and have no brotherhood code?”
Wang Cheng’s face turned quite pale. Each and every word Ding Ning said was heavily hammering his soul when he recalled that he spent the first half of his life in idling away all the time and getting what he needed without hard work, and had been sucking his sister’s blood all the time like a leech.
When he had money in his pocket, he would fool around; when he had no money, he would regard his sister as his ATM; and when he had trouble, he would fully rely on her in shooting his trouble. He had been enjoying his sister’s love without feeling ashamed but had never thought about her happiness.
Thinking of such things, he quickly had the idea of having nothing to love in his life, accepted his fate, closed his eyes, and mumbled with a sob, “You are right. I am a bustard who is not loyal, has no filial piety, is not benevolent, and has no brotherhood code, and I am only her drag when I am alive. You can kill me now. I don’t blame you, and I can only blame that I have been living the first half of my life like a dog. I am not like a human. Sister, I am sorry. If there were an afterlife, I would never be your younger brother, and I would be your elder brother and take good care of you.”
Ding Ning was stunned because he had never thought the words that he had said out of indignance had made the scumbag awakened.
As the saying went, a prodigal who returned was more precious than gold. He didn’t like Wang Juan, but her love of Wang Cheng still moved him very much.
“Well, let me give Wang Cheng another chance.” Ding Ning kicked Wang Cheng away. “Go away. Don’t wait for your afterlife and repay the debt of this life in this life. Be a good man, don’t be like a dog, and repay your sister with the rest of your life!”
Wang Cheng opened his eyes out of astonishment, deeply looked at Ding Ning, and showed his gratitude with a 90-degree bending. “Thanks, I will definitely turn over a new leaf.”
“It has nothing to do with me. If you want to thank anyone, thank your sister. She is a great sister, and you are very lucky. Go away. If you want to avenge, come to me at any time.”
Ding Ning had mixed feelings. Initially, he was not going to let off Wang Cheng or broke his legs to teach him a lesson at least. But thinking of the scene that Wang Juan sadly begged him that time, he finally bent his will.
Wang Juan was abominable sometimes, but, thinking about it carefully, he learned that she was also a poor woman: She had a venomous first love and also a brother whom she worried about. She had suffered enough in this life.
Considering the characters of Qin Canglan and Murong Yixiao, one could guess that Wang Xianghua would never have a good result. For Wang Juan, this was not something bad. Finally, she could get rid of her first love’s control. If Wang Cheng could turn over a new leaf, she would have an opportunity to begin a new life.
Not like God, humans make mistakes. If they could change their mistakes, that would be great. For Ding Ning, saving people always made him happier than killing people. Therefore, he decided to give the sister and brother an opportunity to change themselves.
Also, at this moment, he vaguely had a more profound understanding of the Heart Sutra of Bodhi, and his operation of the sutra had become even more harmonious and flexible. He didn’t have stagnation parts anymore, and his “God soul” had also become more and more solid.
